Definately. It's like he's addressing fan statements without making fun of them. What a concept.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

i know, i loved it

 

[AndThePickles]

and Xavin answered it perfectly right back... he doesnt because he simply doesnt want to. and shouldnt have to... Karolina is ok with it.. so everyone else should be, you must remember the male form is what HE is use to.. and your going to be or enjoy the form your use to the most

Karolina doesn't seem to like it in my opinion. He isn't used to the "male" form, he's used to the SKRULL form.

 

[Kevin]

he's all over the place.

I love this man I do.

He was named writer of the year by Wizard, which I think they had no choice because he did a lot of awesome work this year.

Wizard also named Quesada as Man of the Year, which made me smile.

Anyone else worried that Runaways will suffer from delays once Whedon comes on?

I mean he is writing Astonishing X-Men, Buffy and directing the Wonder Woman movie.

 

[AndThePickles]

Yes, I'm definitely concerned about that

Once again, Joss has never turned a script in late except for one time.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Heh, I know Specter would come in for the clarification lol. It really is Cassaday's slow ass that's the cause of delays.

 

[Mogwai]

for those of you that have been reading runaways from the start, what are best arcs/collections? are the early arcs as good as 'escape to new york' and 'parental guidance?'

 

[Anubis]

Better.

 

[Kevin]

Runaways as a whole is good. It's all good. Alhough, I like season two alot better than season one.

 

[AndThePickles]

Not me, I liked Volume One the best! Alex was the greatest.

 

[SLVRSR4]

I liked the first arc mostly because Victor wasn't there. Chase finally does what i was hoping he would do t: If they kill Chase this book has got nothing great going for it. THey already answered the will they won't they between Nico and Karolina so the great stories there were lost forever!

 

[The_Mystery]

What are the names of the Runaway trades? I want to get caught up before Whedon comes on.

 

[GL1]

Hmmm... He put 'Nico's a ****' the mouth of her evil dead parents and Nico pointed out the very obvious fact that she's had 'boyfriends' in her life and suggested that it's possible she hasn't slept with anyone. That's awful close to a slap, imho... a much needed one, again, imho.

That said, Chase as a villain was unavoidable, but when the choice is Nico or Chase, then, well... that's a bit scary.

OHMIGOSH!!!!!!

Chase has the Abstract!! He already knows what's going to happen and he has a plan. He's not evil, and chances are Nico's the one he's going to bring back from the dead or something like that. That's my call... we'll see how it pans out.

Well, there's two ways you can go about doing this:

First, you can collect them in digest form. Each digest costs about 8 dollars and collects 6 issues in each. The ones released so far:

Vol. 1 - Pride and Joy
Vol. 2 - Teenage Wasteland
Vol. 3 - The Good Die Young
Vol. 4 - True Believers
Vol. 5 - Escape to New York
Vol. 6 - Parental Guidance

Those collect up to issue 18 of volume 2 of the series, so you'll have to scrounge up the single issues of 19-24.

The other way is to collect the hardcovers:

Volume 1 contains all 18 issues of the first series, and Volume 2 collects the first 18 issues of the second series, plus the Free Comic Book Day one shot where they met the X-Men. Again, you'll have to collect 19-24 yourself, and these may be more expensive, but more recommended.
